Hive Scum filtering out people who think it can tank damage will never not be funny though

WHY CAN'T I BE THIS LUCKY??
What's the FRIENDLIEST conversation they had?

I want to get this stupid 1000 heavy kills during stimm penance

And if its half decent, but mostly rule of cool

#

What's the point of the medkit skill? It doesn't heal missing health and it only heals corruption if you have full health but just have corruption damage

shut grotto
#

It's not a medkit

#

You give your team your stimm

flint granite
shut grotto
#

Largely no

subtle sleet

Yes, these classes have various options for their ability from stat buffs to powerful attacks to various utility. I’m just saying I wish Hive Scum had an ability that was utility. There’s abilities we have are stat buff for ranged, stat buff for melee and stat buffs of whatever stim you have.

ripe seal
#

Group stim is the biggest utility, I think you need to invest a lot to make it useful but I think it can be super useful

azure mist
#

I’m simply staying loyal to Vet cause of the further range I have access too over Scum, however if I’m wanting a “let’s enable the team as much as possible” I play Chemist Hive Scum

There is a voiceline between outlaw and anarchist where anarchist is like "You look like you don't wanna be here" and outlaw hits bro with "BECAUSE I DON'T"

Haven’t heard many interactions yet but I’ve been enjoying hearing my Loose Cannon interact with them lmao

#

Btw there’s a specific voice line I heard for the hive scum that I can’t figure out how to trigger it or what ability it’s attached to “WERE GONNA HAVE SUCH FUN” I heard it once and the delivery of that one line just hits so hard

Oddly enough I haven't seen many people pick bounty hunter, most people I've run into are outlaws and anarchists

In that order

I just dumped mobility personally.

It's not like I'm diving between hordes with it.

But we do have a second damage dump now

robust minnow

Whaty was the first one?

what, no

drifting heron

Yes

woeful hill

Yes the zealot flamer dumps damage

limber cradle
#

What perks and blessings are yall running on autos?

high gull
#

The real question is, which mark is the better needler.

drifting heron
#

Damage on flamer only affects the direct damage of yhe fire

sonic pumice
#

yeah, flamer cares more for its dot than the direct damage

drifting heron
#

Which is 23 points with 80% damage

woeful hill
#

And the tiny increase of mobility helps in how you use it

drifting heron
#

And 21 with 60%

There is something wrong with the game since the patch, specials are annoucning them selves right when it's too late, I got sniped by a sniper without seeing a snipers red line until he shot, getting shot by gunners through walls, a ogyrn gunner can shoot people without even facing them, so backstabbing is impossible, etc

Activates the unique strains for the poison

like one of the marks makes the poison explosive when the poison kill someone it explodes dealing a little bit of damage and stagger

The other mark when the target dies it explodes but instead of the former the chem toxin spreads to other nearby targets caught in the blast

once I get all my curios slots I am investing into all of them having 20% gunner resistance

i have not tested yet, but vrak iag probably just better than autopistols?

sturdy marsh

I finally got a game earlier with 1 vet with shout. It made so much of a difference

outer cobalt
#

is the stimm actually any good at low levels?
is it actually any good at high levels either?

sturdy linden
outer cobalt
#

I'm trying to make it actually good for combat
some melee swing speed and toughness regen/less damage

#

actually I really just added some of everything
I should remove some of that stuff for cooldown

sturdy linden
#

Not worth IMO

molten bolt
#

using it for ability cooldown regen for my desperado build

sturdy linden
#

Cooldown too high

outer cobalt
#

also question
how the HELL do you get 3000% melee speed with HALF of the stimm?????!??!?!?!?!?!?'

molten bolt
#

would it be more worth it to use the uzis rather than the pistols for desperado? especially since you are shooting a shit ton as well

sturdy marsh

I've been using cdr and strength stimm. Long cool down but makes a solid difference

tbf, Iron Warriors are kinda atheist, in that they see Chaos as a tool to be used, or at least their Codex says they believe that

candid flare
#

All the previous classes have ways to get to get toughness back, but Scum us built to avoid taking the damage in the first place it seems

Anyone else throw out their entire Blackout grenade reserve when you press G once?

By the way, Guarentee Weapon Swap is bugged because Blackout doesn´t "swap" to the grenades, so if you press G once it throws out all of your grenades

Give everyone your stimm lab effects and purge corruption but it just doesn’t feel like it actually does anything

I think an opportunity was lost when they didn't give the Hive Scum some sort of lunge mine/exploding spear so we could re-enact the Mad Max scene.

small grail
#

So far zealot is the only class i can have fun using a melee build with so i'm hoping scum scratches the itch

tight hinge
#

imagine scum adds some addictive chemical in the stimm supply and all other rejects/arb gained chemical dependence, free customers right there, ever so entreprenual scum

lethal quartz

as a marty zealot enjoyer scum is the ninja melee while zealot is like a "knight"

Chem dependency looks great and fun to use but i hope i'm not killing the melee build by taking it

It goes great with melee.

I pair rampage with either adrenaline or chem

can't go wrong with either

Probably gonna try all abilities and keystones eventually but i wanna be an addict

there's an argument for adrenaline

Unfortunately with chem dependency i'll have to go light on my custom chem viscosity

lethal quartz

but hyper violence along with bonus tox stacks on crit

How does chemical dependancy work? I just did a mission with full stacks the entire time (after getting to max stacks) and i'm still at 0

At this point almost all stim penances are bugged lol

lethal quartz

adrenaline is a lil spikier but has a consistent toughness gen, easier to path if you like a lot of the bottom middle already

novel quest

maybe I'll do chem then

lethal quartz
#

they're honestly on par to me

#

just pref based on what you pair to a melee weap

novel quest
#

yea

lethal quartz
#

shiv goes hard with either

#

heavy sword might lean to adrenaline more

saw loves both but I prefer it with crit from chem for tox stacking

woeful trellis
#

is hyper-violence overkill, underkill, or both? e.g. if i kill a 500 max hp poxwalker with a 2k hit, is the hyperviolence 1500? if i kill a 6k max hp crusher with a 2k hit, is the hyperviolence 4k?

toxic dagger
#

it's 25% of your overkill.

toxic dagger
#

500hp poxwalker with 2k hit = 1500 overkill, 25% of that = 375 bonus damage for 1s

woeful trellis
#

oh and after reading it, it looks like it's not max hp

covert lagoon
#

i swear this channel is zealot chat 2.0

woeful trellis
#

so if the poxwalker had been lowered to 1 hp and i hit it with the same 2k hit, it would be 1999 overkill?
